dudeman17 341 #76 March 3, 2014 chuteless ...I tried to get permission from a DZ owner/operator to do a Mr. Bill, but I would be holding onto the other guy and not wearing chute, so I would land with him. I got a real stern look from the DZO, and said, no I don't think I can allow that... Hell, at our drop zone we do that all day long every week. We even have special rigs built specifically for it. And check this out; we (the experienced jumpers) wear the chutes, and we get whuffos who've never made a jump in their lives to do the chuteless Mr. Bill part. They show up in droves, and here's the really cool part: they PAY us for it!! As for the nudity thing, by God if the Good Lord had wanted us to be naked, we would have been BORN that wa... oh, wait... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mccurley 1 #78 March 4, 2014 I saw Buzz in Korea at the FAI AGM a few years ago. He was at that stage still quite active and was a sitting member on the IPC. He's a good guy, though a burocrat through and through. I met Chutless at the port Severn Dropzone around the time I did my first jump in 73. He's a good guy too. Pity they don't get along.Watch my video Fat Women http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRWkEky8GoI Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
